What is Teeth Whitening Antalya (Bleaching)?
Teeth whitening in Turkey is a process used to remove stains or discolorations from the outer layer of the patient’s teeth. Specific techniques can also be used to remove stains from the dentin layer. The procedure is performed using special gels, solutions, and other supplies under the dentist’s supervision.
Our clinic’s modern approach to tooth bleaching aims to remove color from substances embedded in the tooth structure. We avoid using abrasive compounds, so the treatment is completely safe.
How Teeth Whitening Works
Professional teeth whitening works by improving the shade of the patient’s enamel. To achieve your desired smile, our dentists will apply a whitening gel or solution. We choose a specific kind of whitening gel based on what type of discoloration present on your teeth, its severity, and other factors.
Intrinsic vs Extrinsic Teeth Stains
Any stain on the patient’s teeth can be categorized as an intrinsic or extrinsic stain. The approaches used to treat them differ. Most patients have only extrinsic stains. These stains are located on the outer layer of the tooth, the enamel. They are caused by staining food and drinks or poor oral hygiene.
Intrinsic stains are located beneath the enamel. They are formed during the growth period. The causative factors include some types of antibiotics taken during childhood, trauma, and others. They are more difficult to remove and can be treated with regular bleaching products.
Professional vs Over-the-Counter Whitening
There are many over-the-counter teeth whitening products. Since they are meant to be used without the dentist’s supervision, they are formulated to be relatively weak so that the person using them won’t damage the tooth surface. They can lighten the teeth one to several shades and take several months to take effect. They can’t remove intrinsic stains.
Professional teeth whitening is performed at a dentist’s office and uses much more powerful bleaching agents. A patient can restore the original shade of their teeth after a single or several hour-long procedures when using modern professional teeth whitening techniques.
Types of Teeth Whitening Treatments in Turkey
There are several types of Turkey teeth whitening techniques. Our dentist will recommend one of them depending on the type of stains present on your teeth, desired treatment duration, and overall shade of the treated dentition.
In-Office Teeth Whitening
This is the most common type of professional teeth whitening. The dentist will apply a highly concentrated bleaching gel or solution to the surface of your teeth. The solution may need to be activated under an LED light. LED-activated in-office whitening produces a whiter smile but is not suitable for patients with teeth sensitivity. We use special LED-free techniques in such cases.
At-Home Whitening Kits
At-home whitening kits for tooth whitening are different from over-the-counter solutions. They will be given to you by our clinic. Since the process will be supervised by the dentist during your clinic visits, these at-home kits can use more concentrated gels than are available in drugstores. You will be provided with a personalized plaque. By wearing this plaque with a special bleaching agent for several hours a day, you can reach the desired smile within several weeks.
Laser Teeth Whitening
Laser teeth whitening is similar to the LED-based in-office technique. Instead of using an LED light, the dentist will use a special laser. Just like in the case of the LED teeth whitening, all soft tissues and gums will be protected with a special barrier. This ensures that only the enamel is exposed to the bleaching agents and lasers, protecting your mouth from any damage.
Zoom Advanced Teeth Whitening
Zoom is one of the newest approaches to teeth bleaching. The process targets both enamel and dentin, so it provides a whiter smile compared to alternative treatments. This is an in-office whitening that uses hydrogen peroxide gels and lasers. Zoom whitening techniques can make your teeth up to ten shades lighter after a single session. It is the best choice for patients who want to save time.
Internal (Intracoronal) Whitening
Intracoronal whitening is a special teeth bleaching approach used for teeth that have undergone root canal treatment. Opening the root canal can cause staining on the inner surface of the tooth. Internal teeth whitening agents and techniques are adapted to remove these external stains without damaging the tooth or gums. The treatment takes longer than equivalent external in-office whitening approaches since it can’t use powerful bleaching supplies. However, it is faster to perform than at-home whitening.
Teeth Whitening Procedure Step by Step
The process for in-office teeth whitening Antalya is described below. Both laser-based and LED-based techniques follow the same general steps.
Step 1:
Initial Consultation and Assessment
First, the dentist will describe the details of your treatment and ask you about the results you want to get. The teeth bleaching technique will be chosen based on your request and current dental condition. The dentist will then examine your teeth and take photos. This is needed to match the exact shade of your teeth and to compare the tone with the whitened dentition. Once you have decided how much you would like to lighten your teeth, the process can begin.
Step 2:
Gum and Tissue Protection
The bleaching supplies will need to remain on the outer layer of the teeth for up to an hour. Thus, it is important to protect the gums and the mouth from coming into contact with them. The dentist will use a special retractor guard to isolate the gums, lips, and cheeks from the bleaching gel. An additional resin-based gingival barrier is applied over the gums and cured under a special light before proceeding with the whitening.
Step 3:
Application of Whitening Gel
The dentist will evenly apply the necessary whitening solution over your teeth. The type of whitening agent chosen depends on the treatment and how stained your teeth are. In all cases, the agent is much more powerful than over-the-counter solutions, ensuring you can get the desired shade after just one or several treatments.
Step 4:
Use of Light or Laser Activation
The applied gel needs to be activated to produce the best results. This is done by applying a powerful LED light or a laser. The whitening solution reacts with the stains on the teeth when exposed to light. This removes the stain’s color and reveals the original shade of your teeth.
Post-Treatment Care and Maintenance Tips
Our dentists will remove the solution from your teeth, completing the treatment. They will then take a photo of your teeth. It is used to compare their shade with the pre-treatment photo. We will schedule another session if the desired tone has not been reached. The dentist will provide you with oral care advice to help you prevent new stains from forming.
